Proposed designated singing section at front of the canton stand?

[Father Dougal]

Seen a lot about this on social media but not on here so apologies if im late to the party on this one.

Any thoughts on it? I think it sounds a bit naff.

The Canton is already the designated singing section no? And all the singers gravitate towards the back not the front.

Is this in conjunction the drummers or will they having a chant-off?
Good luck to them but I think being at the front of the stands isn't the best place.

If this replaces the drummers I’m all for it

No way am I standing in the front to get a shit perspective of the pitch and soaked if it rains, never understood the attraction myself

That's what the safe standing area is for I thought.

They set up a fan group of younger fans a little while ago and I think they're trying to sort an 'Ultra' section, but probably under a different name.

Imagine it's easier to put them there as there's probably less season ticket holders to shift.

Understand the drums etc are likely to move into that lower section too, with whole stand remaining as a 'standing/singing' area.

Since when did Cardiff City need a designated area for singing and chanting? What a load of crap.

Yes i sas a thread on twitter about encouraging others to move to the front and it will say singing section on the season ticket cards? Or it will be called the adar glas maybe?

When you say "they" set up, who are they? The club?

Not really sure. I presume club if they're having something put on the cards and moving the drums though as would need permission.

Adar Glas is the name, yeah

Can someone link the twitter thread here? I’ve tried looking but can’t find it

The very term 'singing section' is beyond naff, but also, that is in effect what the Canton Stand already is. In fairness to the club, they have allowed fans to stand there for several years, the tickets are reasonably cheap. I don't know what more can be done aside perhaps from a return to proper terracing or playing good football. Labelling the front of the stand as a singing section won't make much difference.

What would help, is allowing fans to stand in the Ninian stand close to the away fans.

Confirmed… ‘Adar Glas’ will be our singing section bottom rows of 105 and 106.

Adar Glas will be printed on your season tickets and unless it is on your season ticket you will not be allowed in there.
